Names

Hey guys, do you change your in game name often? I used to be N1ckx2, but once I joined a clan I had to be [A7X]Sinister, but now my clan leader is not that active, so I'm thinking of changing my name to Narwhalicorn, or something beast like that. Do you guys change your names often, and what do you think of the name Narwhalicorn?

Re: Most Kills > Highest KD/R?

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 24 Aug 2012 12:46:05 GMT

In kill based gamemodes, K/D is always better then more kills. Your deaths are adding to the enemies score. But you have to make sure you are pulling the weight of you less competent teamates too. EG:

You go 21-9. Pretty good score right? But our teamates go 2-8, 3-6, 4-4 and 1-5. All of your scores combined is 31-32. Say the score limit wasn't reached but time ran out, your team still lost, since you have more deaths than kills, the other team HAD to have more kills than deaths total. You were doing a good job being a team player and getting a good K/D, but with a lousy team, you have to pull the weight of your teamates to be successful( when running solo).

In objective gamemodes, K/D doesn't matter, but you don't want it low. If you feed enemies killstreaks, they can more easily defend the objectives (with ims, sentry guns, airstrikes, etc) and ultimately making it harder to win the objectives. What I like to do in domination is capture the 2 desired flags, and lay back to let my killstreaks do some work. But until we have the 2 desired flags, I will not killwhore. Also, I try to defend the objectives while killwhoring.

TL;DR K/D is more important in kill games while pulling weight of bad teamates. Objective gamemode K/D doesn't matter but don't feed enemy killstreaks.

Gold Guns

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 21 Aug 2012 18:18:54 GMT

How many and what gold guns do you have?

I have the mp7 (x2), acr, type 95, and mg36. Working on the CM901 right now. I think gold guns are really ugly on the wii, they are just yellow.

2+2=4 to the average mind. If you relfect the first 2 on the Y axis, then combine both twos (with super glue, obvioiusly), you have one shape. The you rotate it by 90 degrees (clockwise), and give it an eye and a mouth, you get a fish.

Thanks. What do you think would be a good backup, to swap to in a tight situation, Magnum or Rex (or any other pistol)?

Oops, I meant for a general purpose role, and for objective play.

Wierd Question....

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 17 Aug 2012 18:54:06 GMT

Which is better, mg36 or cm901? I know there is no point in comparing an AR and an LMG, and these two are not that good, but I was just wondering. The mg36 is amazing with rapid fire, it is pretty good close quarters and can be good for long ranges if you go prone. I don't find the recoil to be too bad. But it has bad handling (swap. ADS, bad hipfire, etc) and takes forever to get to places, and punishes sloppy play. But the CM901 has good handling, and you can be a little bit more sloppy and aggressive without being hindered. It also has the most beast reload ever. But the only thing it is missing is a good firerate, making it not compare to faster firing guns at mid range. So, which is better?

Re: What to spend prestige tokens on?

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 17 Aug 2012 18:52:47 GMT

5 custom classes, vet package, save one. Since it says I am 10th prestige, I don't need to unlock guns or double XP.

Re: domination wins or kills

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:56:08 GMT

I usually throw myself at flags, not caring if I die, and getting 2 flags, which is b and the better one out of A and C. Then I don't push up but stay between our flags and their flag, cutting them off so they can't get to our flags.

Re: Wii PDP Headbanger Headset Question?

Where did you get oyur headset? I looked at walmarts, EB Games (Canada's equivelant of Game Stop), and other stores, but can't find one.

THEORETICAL Assasin Fix

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 24 Jul 2012 13:28:54 GMT

Even though a patch will never come to the wii, here is a theoretical fix for assasin.

New Assasin:

Immune to UAV, Portable Radar, Heartbeat Sensors and AUAV.

Pro:

No red crosshairs or name when targeted by enemy.

Recon will be immune to CUAV, but not EMP.

Marksman users will still see the red name over assasin pro user's heads.

Every 3 scavenger packs refill a lethal grenade. No more than 1 lethal grenade can be on the map at any given time by the same player.

New Blackbird Style killstreak that will show enemy players in realtime, but not their direction. Will directly counter assasin. Only in assault, and lasts 30 secs.

Why will this be more balanced:

None of the buffed perks will be overpowered, and the new blackbird killstreak will be a good counter, but cannot be easily reached due to only being in assault. Assasin will still be a very good stealth perk, but it will have more viable counters. Recon will still be effective under CUAVs, Marksman will be able to see assasin's hiding in bushes, and the thermal scope will be better than it is at the moment. Also, the scavenger buff will also buff blast shield, because more explosives = more reason to be protected = more blastshield = more competition for assasin. Also, since no more than one explosive at a time, no more claymore spam.

What do you think?

Re: Besides hackers and FMG9s, what do you hate being killed by?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:09:49 GMT

DMH. Atleast you have to kind of aim the fmg9s, unlike the mini-nuke. I know you said deathstreaks but, tl;dr

Re: Something I just realized about lag compensation in MW3

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:06:57 GMT

The p90 shoots at ~600-700 rpms on the wii beleive it or not. The pp90m1 shoots at 900, as does the pm-9 and type 95.

Also, you said something about the everyone in a lobby having under 80ms ping connections. I've connected to a game with under a 80ms ping, and never searched for one below 80. I usually join games with a 90ms ping connection. Does it have to do with my NAT type, which is moderate? I know what NAT type is, but would that effect this?

Re: SMG & Stability proficiency?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 19 Jun 2012 21:48:56 GMT

You have lots of sway with the ccpro. Stability is useful with the mp7, if you playing on a bigger map.

Re: What is a good Strike Package String?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 19 Jun 2012 02:30:05 GMT

I didn't read all the posts but here is what I think:

If you can build up a streak run chopper, overwatch, rapelow. This set up is really good, but only if you can build up a good streak.

If you can't, run care package, airstrike chopper. This is what I run personnally, because it is no stress easy. The care package is always a fun gamble, and you usually get an ims/ sentry anyways, which is more bang-for-the-buck (get 4 kills, get a 5 killstreak, like a boss). Even if you get a UAV, UAVs are still awesome, and you can't get support streaks or ammo. Also, the precision airstrike if good for clearing out areas and can possibly get you the chopper. If you prefer a 5 streak to the 6 streak, run IMS instead of sentry because you have to wait for a sentry and it doesn't count towards your streak. Also, a well placed ims can get you 3 kills easy, and if you play defensively (DON'T CAMP), then that can help you reach your chopper.
